The Boston Symphony Orchestra presents a programme of American music at the Philharmonie Berlin. With his Concerto in F George Gershwin expanded the classical repertoire into the domain of jazz. The work of Los Angeles-based composer Julia Adolphe is music we have yet to discover here. Only Igor Stravinsky’s ballet score Petrushka was written in Central Europe, long before Stravinsky found a new home for himself in the USA.
